Please Burn After Reading
by Ghada Khalil
Burn after reading,
the secrets held in withered pages,
inked confessions and hidden truths
sealed within the sanctum of silence.
Words scorching the edges of comprehension, embers of revelation igniting minds,
a conflagration of revelations
that char the soul with understanding.
In the flames of vulnerability,
fears and desires turn to ash,
leaving behind only the raw essence of unfiltered honesty.
Burn after reading,
for in the inferno of transparency
lies the liberation of expression,
the incandescence of authenticity.
Let the fire consume
the masks we wear,
the facades we project,
until only the naked truth remains.
Burn after reading,
and from the ashes,
let wisdom rise like a phoenix,
illuminating the path to revelation.
Please Burn After Reading by Ghada Kahlil was based on one of our February Prompts.
